Electric cars have finally come of age. The best offer virtually all the functionality and practicality of traditional petrol or diesel cars, while creating zero exhaust emissions and the potential for very low day-to-day running costs.
With state of the art technology we are now able to offer the servicing of full electric vehicles.
What’s included as part of an electric service?
Most of the mechanical aspects of car servicing remain the same for electric vehicles. However, there are a few additional checks that are required as part of comprehensive hybrid car servicing, as displayed in the table below:
- Connect diagnostic for hybrid health check (report live data)
- Check condition of charging point and charging cable
- Visually check high voltage cables and connectors for damage
- Report if inverter coolant is due
- Rotate road wheels to check for brake binding
How often should I service my electric vehicle?
In the majority of cases, electric cars should be serviced at the same intervals as you would a regular car. We recommend checking your owner’s manual for more accurate details relating to your vehicle.
